Hey guys! This is my first song fiction ever, so please bear with me! It's with InuYasha along with the lovely song "Since You've Been Gone" by Theory of a Dead Man. An awesome band indeed!(The lyrics are in italics grouped on their own, and then the story is in non-italics.)Please enjoy!

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own InuYasha or anybody/anything related to him. I also don't own Theory of a Dead Man or any of their lyrics, etc. If I did, I would probably rule theworld, but I DON'T, so the world remains not mine.

It seems that nothing ever goes my way

Since you broke my heart when you left that day

InuYasha kicked a rock from the ground towards the Bone Eater's well. His face still throbbed from when Kagome 'sat' him three consecutive times in a row. He slumped to the ground in a huff.

Stupid Kagome, he thought. He didn't even do anything wrong! Koga was the one who interrupted his fight with the demons, and Kagome decided to punish him again. Why did she always seem to flirt with him? And being InuYasha, he asked that exact question. She accused him of being rude and insensitive and that she was not flirting with Koga. He told her off, so she 'sat' him. Then she went home in an angry flare.

There's no where to go, so just stay with me

Cuz since you've been gone, I've been begging you please…

InuYasha stared angrily at a tree, hoping it might burst into flames or something. He wondered why Kagome always had to go home after they had an argument. It was pointless. Miroku said that is was for Kagome to let off steam, and Sango and Shippo agreed. Wasn't the numerous 'sit' commands enough? She didn't always have to leave him…

To tell me you're not alright and you needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

To tell me you're not okay and you needed me all along

Since you've been gone

It's not like anything productive happened when she left for her era. All everyone does it sit around! The others complain about needing a break. Breaks! Not when Naraku is out collecting jewel shards easily! But…somehow it just wasn't the same without Kagome around. Surly she must be bored with those 'tests' by now…

I need to hear from you

Since you've been gone

How long would she take this time? What if she didn't come back? The least she could do was visit sometime soon!

It seems that every time you swear to God that you're leaving

I'm down on my knees begging you to stay

InuYasha recalled what had happened to better detail. He was fighting Kagura in an attempt to locate Naraku. He was doing pretty well, he was the hero. Suddenly, out of no where, that stupid smelly wolf, Koga, shows up, and steals his match! Kagura ended up fleeing in the end. So naturally, Kagome goes to thank Koga for his so-called 'help'. And InuYasha being InuYasha got upset! He wanted to put that puny wolf in his place! But Kagome insisted that don't fight because they were both seriously injured. Who cared! All the better for him. So, Kagome being Kagome gave InuYasha the 'sit' command, and let Koga get away! Again!

"What did you do that for!" he yelled.

"I don't want you two fighting for no reason! Besides, you're both injured!" she shouted back.

"Nobody cares about puny little injuries! Why do you always flirt with Koga!"

"I do not flirt with Koga! You're just being rude and insensitive!"

"No I'm not! You're the one being stupid!"

"InuYasha, sit boy! Sit! Sit! Sit!"

InuYasha crashed face first into the ground many times.

"I'm going home!" she called, walking away.

"Hey! Wait!"

Her so-called 'punishment' was unnecessary. He could've sworn that he heard her calling him a jerk, but he couldn't be too sure…

There's no where to go, so just stay with me

Cuz since you've been gone, I've been begging you please…

Now he was by himself. Sulking. Did she really have to go home all the time? She shouldn't run away from her problems. Wait…did that mean that he was a problem to her!

To tell me you're not alright and you needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

To tell me you're not okay and you needed me all along

Since you've been gone

The sun was getting lower in the sky as the day progressed. When would she be coming back, already? She hadn't been gone even a day and he seemed to be missing her. Why did he always miss her? Couldn't she just let it go? But then again…he did call her stupid, but then she 'sat' him more than the necessary dosage! He sighed and continued hoping that the tree not too far away from him would somehow go into flames soon.

Please don't leave me here alone

Just stay awhile

Make me smile

He didn't like being by himself like this. Not knowing that Kagome was mad at him for no plausible reason. He thought about the many times she had smiled for him. Even though he didn't usually return it physically, inwardly, he would smile back at her.

Please don't leave me here alone

Just stay awhile

And baby smile…

Her smiling face was now at the forefront of his mind. When would he see it again? How he wished he could see her smile right now…

Since you've been gone

I need to hear from you

Since you've been gone

I need to hear you say…

More memories of Kagome flashed up in InuYasha's mind. He felt guiltier by the minute for treating her the way he did. He finally admitted to himself that she was right and he was wrong. He also admitted that he missed her.

Tell me you're not alright and you've needed to come home

(Since you've been gone)

Tell me you're not okay and you've needed me all along

Since you've been gone

The sun was setting. Even more memories of Kagome flooded InuYasha's memory. He needed to see her. Didn't she miss him too?

I need to hear you say

Since you've been gone

(Don't tell me)

(Don't tell me)

I need to hear you say…

He heard something behind him climbing up alongside of the well. He looked and saw it was Kagome. She climbed over, and was lightly blushing.

"InuYasha, I'm really sorry for the way I acted…" she began.

"No, I'm sorry," he replied sheepishly. Her eyes widened.

"T-thank you," she replied. Then she smiled.

InuYasha never felt happier to see her.
